    DEPARTMENT OF PHYSIC S NEWSLETTER F A L L 2 0 1 8 Interactions Message from the Chair Welcome to the Fall 2018 issue of Interactions, the Department of Physics newsletter! There have been a number of changes in the Department over the summer, and I hope you’ll enjoy reading about some of them here. Here on the third floor, Stephen Julian has stepped down after a very successful five-year term as Chair. He’ll be succeeded by Kim Strong, but since she’s on leave this year I’ll be spending the year as Acting Chair. Some of you may remember that I was Chair from 2004-2013, and it’s good to be back working with the great staff and faculty in the department. William Trischuk’s term as Associate Chair for Graduate Studies also ended this summer, and that role will now be filled by Young-June Kim. As is traditional, in this issue we introduce you to a few of the members of the Department. We have a large experimental particle physics group, most of whom are involved in the ATLAS collaboration at CERN, and in this issue we have profiles of faculty member Pekka Sinervo as well as graduate student Haider Abidi. We also introduce you to undergraduate physics and philosophy specialist Matthew Gerry, as well as alumnus Felipe Morgado, who discusses how he progressed from an undergraduate degree in biophysics to an MD/PhD program. The Department continues to be heavily involved in outreach, and I hope many of you had the opportunity to visit one of our public events last year.
